Index¶

Widget description¶
An index widget gives you an index for fast access to whichever group of other UI items one might have.
It’s a list of text items (usually letters, for alphabetically ordered access).
Index widgets are by default hidden and just appear when the
user clicks over it’s reserved area in the canvas. In its
default theme, it’s an area one finger
wide on
the right side of the index widget’s container.
When items on the index are selected, smart callbacks get called, so that its
user can make other container objects to show a given area or child object
depending on the index item selected. You’d probably be using an index together
with List
,
Genlist
or
Gengrid
.
